NOTE
Please, make sure the following conditions are fulfilled to obtain a safe transportation:
- Whenever possible the occupied wheelchair shall be located in a forward-facing
configuration and secured by the tie downs in accordance with the WTORS (wheelchair tie
down and occupant-restraint system) manufacturer's instructions.
- This wheelchair is suitable for use in vehicles and has met the performance requirements for
travelling forwards-facing in frontal impact conditions. Its use in other configurations within a
vehicle has not been tested.
- The wheelchair has been dynamically tested in a forward-facing orientation with the ATD
(anthropomorphic test device) restrained by both pelvic and upper torso belts.
- Both pelvic and upper torso belts should be used to reduce the possibility of head and chest
impacts with vehicle components.
- When possible, other auxiliary wheelchair equipment should be either secured to the
wheelchair or removed from the wheelchair and secured in the vehicle during transit, so that it
does not break free and cause injury to vehicle occupants in the event of a collision.
- Positioning supports should not be relied on for occupant restraint in a moving vehicle unless
they are labeled as being in accordance with the requirements specified in ISO 7176/19-2008.
- The wheelchair should be inspected by a manufacturer's representative before reuse
following involvement in any type of vehicle impact.
NOTE
- Alterations or substitutions should not be made to the wheelchair securement points or to
structural and frame parts or components without consulting the manufacturer.
- Only use "gelled electrolyte" batteries on powered wheelchairs when used in a car.
